Colt Technology Services this week announced the divestment of six facilities in Germany and the Netherlands to DWS-owned NorthC, as well as two in the UK to DWS separately. The NorthC transaction includes data centers across Frankfurt, Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Düsseldorf, and Amsterdam, with a collective power availability of more than 25MW.
Keri Gilder, CEO, Colt Technology Services, said: “We’re pleased to have entered into this agreement to divest our data centres to NorthC and to the funds managed by DWS Group. The sale will enable us to focus on our strategic imperatives of driving growth, delivering exceptional customer experience, and building a sustainable network for the future.”
Alexandra Schless, CEO, NorthC Group, added: “This represents another major milestone in our journey to operate the leading platform of regional data centers in northwestern Europe. Germany, as Europe’s largest economy, is a key strategic market for us.”
She continued: “With this acquisition, we will strengthen our presence across key economic regions in Germany, which will unlock further growth and new opportunities. We’re also pleased to further expand our partnership with Colt as one of the major network providers within the rich connectivity eco-system in each facility.”
